As a Yankee fan I hate the Red Sox, but as a baseball fan I despise the Astros. So I find myself positively giddy that the Sox have grand slams in each of the first 2 innings today. I never thought I'd be able to say/write that.
A bit later...
Enrique (Kike) Hernandez just homered and the Sox are clinging to a 9-0 lead in the 4th. I'm impressed, jealous, and annoyed at this:
Signed for 2yr/$14 mil to play 2nd, he wound up playing about 1/3 of a season's worth of games there, but wound up playing 81 games in CF, with 14 defensive runs saved.
Today's game is only 1/2 over, but as of now he is 15-24, with a one, two, three, four, and five hit game in his last 4 1/2 games with 4 doubles and 5 home runs. 8 runs, 9 RBI
